The beta version of gramps 4 was released. http://gramps-project.org/2013/04/gramps-4-0-0-beta-released/ "The dependencies for Gramps 4.0.0 are completely different than 3.4 due to the switch to GObject introspection, and the removal of autotools." Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 345298 [details] Preliminary Gramps 4.0.0beta ebuild Just to let you know: I am working on an ebuild, but it still has some issues with the python-r1.eclass (specifically distutils). It works standalone but with Portage it has a strange failure. Current state is attached, some dependencies are still missing.
Version 4.0.1 was released: http://gramps-project.org/2013/06/gramps-4-0-1-released/
Created attachment 377506 [details] Preliminary ebuild for gramps 4.0.4 Version 4.0.4 was released recently. I have attempted to create a preliminary ebuild. Their installation script requires a small patch, since it attempts to auto-detect a path for some gramps resources, which ends up being the fake install path under portage. Some other issues: osm-gps-maps won't work with python3, so having the option to use gramps with python2.7 would be nice There's a warning about webkit not being installed. It requires a package 'gir1.2-webkit-3.0', and I'm not sure what the equivalent gentoo package would be I am by no means an ebuild expert, so comments/modifications welcome. Except for these, this ebuild has been working well for me.
Created attachment 377508 [details, diff] Resource path patch for gramps 4.0.4 Fixes the setup script so that the resource path is hardwired, rather than auto-detected to the (incorrect) portage install path.
(In reply to Benny P. from comment #3) I've developed the ebuild a little further (attachment following) > Some other issues: > osm-gps-maps won't work with python3, so having the option to use gramps > with python2.7 would be nice Added an ebuild to bug 499592 for latest osm-gps-map > > There's a warning about webkit not being installed.

Also: - added a sed to stop installing two doc directories - fixed HOMEPAGE - updated dependencies, not 100% sure, but based on https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Linux:Build_from_source#Linux_package_requirements_2
